Nesting Bird
“I want the wide American earth: an Asian Pacific American story” is a traveling exhibition created by Smithsonian Institution.  The 21-city national tour stops at the Museum of Ventura County in California, June 18 - August 28, 2016.  It includes the stories and artworks of BiJian Fan, Hiroko Yoshimoto, and other local artists. 

“As an immigrant, I struggled in finding my voice,” BiJian reflected on his assimilation; “I sought help in visual art because it transcended cultural barrier and allowed me to express freely.”  BiJian’s stainless steel sculpture is featured in the Smithsonian exhibition, it is inspired by the architecture of Beijing Olympic Stadium - Bird’s Nest.
